Laparoscopic surgery (also known as minimally invasive surgery) is a type of surgery that is performed using small incisions and specialized instruments. It's a great option for those who need surgery but want to minimize the disruption to their daily lives. Read more >

Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is a surgical technique that involves the use of specialized instruments to access the surgical site through small incisions or natural orifices in the body, rather than through a large incision. The goal of minimally invasive surgery is to minimize trauma to the body, reduce pain, and speed up recovery time. Some common types of minimally invasive surgery include laparoscopic surgery, endoscopic surgery, and robotic surgery. Read more here >

The recovery time for laparoscopic surgery can vary depending on the type of procedure being performed and the individual patient's health. Generally, patients can expect a shorter recovery time and less pain compared to traditional open surgery. Many patients are able to return to normal activities within a few days to a week after the surgery, although some may need several weeks to fully recover. It is important to follow the post-operative instructions given by the surgeon and to attend all follow-up appointments to ensure a smooth recovery. It is also recommended that you consult Dr. Romero or his staff for more information as recovery time can also depend on the specific type of surgery you are getting and your health condition. 

As with any surgical procedure, there are certain risks associated with laparoscopic surgery. These include bleeding, infection, injury to nearby organs, and blood clots. In rare cases, there may be a risk of anesthesia complications. Additionally, there is a small risk that the laparoscopic surgery may need to be converted to open surgery if the surgeon encounters difficulty during the procedure.

It is important to have a thorough discussion with Dr. Romero regarding the risks and benefits of the procedure, as well as your medical history and any other relevant information, to determine if laparoscopic surgery is the right option for you.

It is also important to note that the risks of laparoscopic surgery are generally lower than those of traditional open surgery.
